Broadband & caller display

Has anyone who is on the BT system who has caller display and has since upgraded to Broadband had any issues.. I have 2 caller display units (both BT CD30's) and both of them are not working correctly since conversion - bit weird that both would go down at the same time? Then again, I might just be paranoid!!

Never went for the whole caller display thing. I'd give BT a call and see if it's possibly a known issue (not that DSL should affect the caller ID being sent over the phone line.. but BT are quite screwy )

sometimes(in the states) when people put dsl in it effects their phone lines...at Radio Shack(in the states) or any electronics store sells filters that make sure the phone gets the phone signal and the dsl gets the dsl signal

Doh - just checked the cordless phones, and their caller displays work fine - so it looks like the prob with the remote units is at my end (probably dump them, as there is no real need now). Many thanks for replies

Although I had filters fitted to all phone lines, they were 'cheap' ones bought from PC World - just remembered that I had 3 freebie BT ones supllied with AOL modem (unused as I have a wireless router). Stuck a couple of the BT filters in and problem solved (plus the slight crackling heard intermittently on phone line). Just goes to show you get what u paid for (will not slag off BT for at least a couple of weeks now).

Yup Lee, they are sloppy little tinkers - though I do believe that they are going to enable all exchanges in UK without having to wait for the desired amount of 'hits' (although how long that will take is anyone's guess).

But I must admit their filters did the trick where others failed - so I will not be slagging them off again - until at least Friday!! (wife just signed up for 1-tel, so that will probably put their noses out, he he).

Well those other Telecom companies make you sign a contract, when you don't use the phone for enough outbound calls, they get narky and moan and whine. Then they say they are withdrawling your service, stick with B.T., shop around their deals and find one that suits better. You will be back with B.T. by xmas.
